The Genomic Geography and Evolution of Clusters of Tandemly Duplicated Genes in the Human and Mammal Genomes

2018-12-21

Abstract excerpt

Clusters of duplicated genes (CTDGs) are nearly ubiquitous in life's genomes, and are associated with several well-known gene families, such as olfactory receptors, zinc fingers, and immunity-related genes, as well as with several highly variable traits, including olfaction, body plan architecture, and pathogen resistance. However, these observations are usually anecdotal, restricted to specific cases, and lacking...
